This is really interesting and a --partially-- reasonable way forward, which still has significant obstacles to remove from its path to materialization. But, there are even more difficult problems to tackle. Public awareness must be raised to the economic overpopulation of earth --i.e., the exceedingly high population of areas, given that population's consumption patterns-- that results in resource overconsumption and depletion in local or remote areas.

The local level, that of cities, is only the first step needed in the required realization and could lead to improving quality of life as an economic and business target. The next step, population control, will be even more difficult.

Citizen involvement, public scrutiny and extensive consultation is all steps in the right direction.
Still such new directions need to go deeper still.

What we learn through the multi-faceted global crisis is that humanity exists in an artificial bubble, disconnected from the natural system despite evolving from and still existing in that system.
The instinctive belonging, integration, the inherent mutually complementing cooperation prevalent in animals and other living creatures is completely missing in modern human beings.

But without this instinctive integration we are simply creating, making up laws, principles, trying decisions and solutions that are "blind shots in the dark" and thus most of the time they are not only unsuccessful but they are harmful.

In order to make the right decisions, in order to solve our growing global problems we would need to start sensing, understanding the system of nature "from within".
But to enter the system we would need the right "code".

And the code for entering any system, the code or template for perceiving, attaining things is by acquiring similarity of form with it. This is similar to tuning a radio receiver to the right frequency in order to receive the broadcast, and even our physical sensory organs work that way.

Thus humanity would need to develop the right "tool", "receiver" to start sensing the natural system, and we can only develop such tool by building the right interconnections in between human beings.
Only when global human society becomes similar the harmonious, mutually interacting natural system, where we replace ruthless and exploitative competition with mutually complementing collaboration in order to achieve and sustain homeostasis can we start understanding the cause and effect processes in the natural system, attain the overall direction, plan of evolution so we could adapt, tune ourselves precisely and optimally to it.

This process of adaptation, tuning would not only help us solving our present problems but would facilitate us rising to a unprecedented, qualitatively higher level of existence, becoming partners with the system.

In the first year of his presidency, Donald Trump has consistently sold out the blue-collar, socially conservative whites who brought him to power, while pursuing policies to enrich his fellow plutocrats.

Sooner or later, Trump's core supporters will wake up to this fact, so it is worth asking how far he might go to keep them on his side.
